Abstract :
A genetic algorithm that speeds convergence for phased array phase-only synthesis by adaptively toggling between nine mutation parameter pairs is illustrated. This adaptive algorithm outperforms any of the corresponding nine static cases where these same mutation parameters are held constant throughout the optimisation process.
